Hi Frank,
> Just seen this mail,
Are you sure sample rate conversion was done on the sound file when saved out?
The lack of conversion would result in a faster sound file due to more data
being packed into it. I do not see an explicit sample rate conversion function
in Audacity in the menus, just project settings. Perhaps it does not work for
you when you save.

Did you know?
Tasteless traditional Zulu beer is called isalababa, meaning 'goodbye father', implying that guests must leave their host because his beer cannot be enjoyed.
It is believed that Nomkhubulwana, the Princess of Rain, revealed the secret of traditional beer brewing to the Zulu people, and that white cattle are associated with ancestral spirits, representing purity and fertility. The great empire builder King Shaka banned early marriage to ensure his warriors kept their focus on matters of war, and love letters during courtship took the form of colour symbolism in beadwork.
These are some of the interesting facts the visitor learns at the KwaZulu Cultural Museum in Ondini near Ulundi, which falls into the eMakhosini Valley, the valley of Zulu Kings.
This KwaZulu-Natal cultural museum traces a number of historical themes. In one section it details the early inhabitants of the province, leading up to Shaka and a successor Cetshwayo, followed by the arrival of white settlers and their implications for trade. It also looks at belief systems of the Zulu, and the importance they placed on cattle as a source of wealth. Bringing the story into the present, a display on apartheid laws and their effects is included.
A second section reviews the strict divisions between males and female roles in this patriarchal and polygamous society and how this was reflected in dress, customs and division of labour. A reconstruction of a traditional homestead makes a fascinating display. Other cultural aspects such as the brewing of beer, the manufacture of musical instruments and the significance of beadwork is also covered.
The KwaZulu Cultural Museum is one museum that doesn't freeze the culture it portrays in a timeframe of the past. It examines the Zulu nation of today, and shows the dynamic nature of the Zulu culture as it moves with the times.
Most displays have interactive components, such as toys children can play with, traditional musical instruments to play and the opportunity to try your hand at beadwork.

I am not a small guy by any means:
..but I find it hard to conceal my XD9 service in the clothes that I wear in the summer(winter clothes should be easy). I typically wear clothes that, you know, fit. I don't wear alot of baggy clothes. I wear jeans and button up shirts un-tucked as well as shorts in the same fashion (mostly collared shirts). Even with the shirts untucked its hard to conceal that gun.
So, I would like to get a small 9mm+ pocket carry/ultra small pistol. The XDSC would be an option but it isn't THAT much smaller than the service model. I was looking at some kahr's but they are kinda pricey $700-ish (and I am a college student :( ).
Then I stumbled across the KelTec P11 and PF9. Not only are they inexpensive, they are incredibly small. ARe these guns reliable/accurate/worth it?
I love the idea of pocket carrying because I wear cargo style shorts alot in the summer so it wouldn't be hard to conceal. I also think that I would carry more often if I had a small enough gun to make it feasible.
I am open for thoughts, opinions, and suggestions.

Ryan Seacrest Is "Really Romantic," Says Julianne Hough
By ThirdAge
Julianne Hough is going public with how she feels about her boyfriend Ryan Seacrest. The former "Dancing With the Stars" professional dancer revealed on The Ellen DeGeneres Show that Seacrest is "phenomenal," according to NYDailyNews.com.
"He's really romantic," Hough says. "He's not even in town, and I got in my car and there are flowers everywhere."
Hough, 22, and Seacrest, 35, have dodged relationship questions for months, but the two appeared publicly together when they sat courtside at a Los Angeles Lakers game earlier this month, according to New York Daily News.
"I could not be happier," Hough says. "Everything is wonderful."
The 22-year-old has a role in the musical "Burlesque" which opens Nov. 24 and stars Christina Aguilera and Cher. Hough plays a nightclub performer and best friend to Aguilera's character.
"That's totally different from 'Footloose' and I got to wear a lot of fabulous costumes," she says.

European filmmaker to record event for centennial documentary
CLARKSDALE - Next weekend's Mississippi Delta Tennessee Williams is drawing international attention with Austrian filmmaker Herbert Krill recording its two-day program for a documentary marking the playwright's 100th birthday in March 2011.
The 45-minute documentary will air on Public Television in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland, says Krill, who plans to be in Clarksdale Oct 15-16 for the 18th annual celebration.
A veteran filmmaker for the past 30 years, Krill says, "The main question the documentary will pose is how relevant and topical is T.W. today."
"Given that so many German and Austrian theatres are currently staging plays by T.W. and that so many issues he touched are still 'hot' today, the answer will be an emphatic 'yes,'" continues the filmmaker.
Although the German-language film will be geared to a Central European audience, Krill says he will create a version with English subtitles to screen at American festivals.
In 2009 two Williams dramas dominated London's West End theatres with sold-out productions of Cat on a Hot Tin Roof and A Streetcar Named Desire.
In August 2009 the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) aired its Radio 2 documentary recorded at Clarksdale's Williams Festival to an audience of 13 million.
Already booking reception reservations for the 2010 festival are fans of the playwright from Oxford, England, St. Augustine, Kansas, California, Michigan, and Tennessee.
Tom "Tennessee" Williams was born March 26, 1911, in Columbus. When he was a toddler, his family moved to Clarksdale where his grandfather, the Rev. Walter Dakin, was rector of St. George's Episcopal Church for 16 years.
When the U.S. Postal Service unveiled its Tennessee Williams postage stamp during the 1995 festival in Clarksdale's historic district, keynote speaker Kenneth Holditch labeled Williams as America's premiere playwright.
"He produced dramas that have become staples in world theatre and some of the most memorable characters since Shakespeare – Blanche DuBois, Big Daddy, Maggie the Cat, and Amanda Wingfield,"said the speaker.
"He spent his most formative years in Clarksdale in the Mississippi Delta which supplied him with more stories and characters than any other place on earth," Holditch continued.
The 2010 festival opens Friday morning at Coahoma Community College's Whiteside Lecture Hall with Holditch presenting another keynote address. This one explores the screenplay, The Loss of a Teardrop Diamond.
With its 1920-era setting in the Mississippi Delta and Memphis, the movie was filmed and directed in 2009 by Memphis native Jodie Markell from a screenplay written in 1957.
Later before the movie is screened at the Delta Cinema in downtown Clarksdale, Markell will talk about her own experiences filming with actors Bryce Dallas Howard, Ann Margaret, and Oscar winner Ellen Burstyn.
Performing scenes from several of the playwright's great Delta plays in Whiteside Hall following the keynote address will be veteran New York theatre professionals Erma Duricko, Timothy Brown, and Marissa Duricko of Blue Roses Productions, and Jeff Glickman from the Pensacola Little Theatre.
Offering insights and commentary on their readings and the movie, the festival's panel of scholars headed by English professor Colby Kullman, moderator, includes professors Ann Fisher-Wirth and Ralph Voss; theatrical producer Robert Canon; creative writer and John Grisham fellow Anna Baker; and film critic and screenwriter Coop Cooper.
The literary conference will also present a paper by graduate student Robert Rae exploring Delta Italians in the Williams drama: Orpheus Descending.
Friday night's "Meet and Greet" celebrity reception at the historic Clark House will showcase the gourmet Southern cuisine of CCC Chef Robert Rhymes and his culinary students; live drama, music by Daddy Rich, Jeff Glickman, and the award-winning Coahoma Men's Ensemble singing gospel and soul selections and directed by Kelvin Towers.
The elite Student Drama Competition takes over Saturday morning in the Civic Auditorium with fledgling Mississippi actors presenting monologues, scenes, and Stella shouts for $3,000 in prize money donated by Coahoma Community College for their school drama departments.
Erma Duricko will conduct an acting workshop, and Jodie Markell will talk about careers in theatre and movies.
Opening Saturday afternoon's events will be an organ recital at St. George's Episcopal Church presented by Jay Westerfaul, the new church organist.
Visitors are invited to tour the church office and former rectory – a National Literary Landmark – and also to attend an open house with refreshments hosted by the Clarksdale Women's Club across the street.
Porch plays with audiences seated in lawn chairs in the historic district where Tom Williams spent his childhood will begin at 2:30 p.m. and continue through 4:30 p.m., and a barbecue supper will be served at 5 p.m. in the Civic Auditorium.
Student Competition winners will present their monologues and scenes followed by commentary from the festival's theatre professionals, and exchanges among all groups.
The Eddie Lee Coleman Blues Band will kick off the finale dance.
The festival is free and open to the public thanks to funding from Coahoma Community College, the Mississippi Arts Commission, the Mississippi Humanities Council, the Rock River Foundation, the Coahoma County Tourism Commission, Chamber of Commerce, Clarksdale Revitalization, Inc., area patrons: Fiser Insurance Agency, and the Hal Fiser Agency, and an army of volunteers.
Reservations are required for the Friday luncheon ($12); Friday night reception ($25) and Saturday barbecue, ($12). For schedules, reservation forms, and more information, view the festival website: www.coahomacc.edu/twilliams or call CCC public relations at 662-621-4157.

Currency trading is a lucrative business if one is well-versed in the market particulars. The foreign exchange market, also Forex market and denoted as FX is a global practice of trading currencies in a decentralized platform. Formerly, the Forex Market was dominated by international banks that could access these markets. However, with the internet and its pertinent advances in technology, small-scale investors can also be actively involved in trading world currencies. Understanding the working of foreign exchange markets and the trade secrets is important when one is considering investing. Lack of sufficient knowledge will mean unnecessary losses.
Investing in the Foreign Exchange Market
Basically, Forex trading involves studying currencies and speculating one's value over another and attempting to make a profit out of this knowledge. Though a lot of mathematical evaluation is done, it is an activity that requires more than technical knowledge. The best traders have sharpened their skills with years of experience and are able to more reliably predict the patterns of currency value. However, it is a business that one can succeed in with research and efficient. It is risky and complex but as an investment, it is has potential of bringing in very substantial profits. The Forex market is superior to trading in shares and stock because currency is not independent.
Currency acts relative to another meaning there if one goes up, another is going down. Currency trading is always globally live and therefore no one has any advantage over the other. Like every other good, currency is subject to appreciation and depreciation. With a good game plan, there is a high chance of getting a huge profit. Politics and other events affect market. Generally, financial markets hate instability and this can be used to gain advantage.
The Risks of Foreign Exchange Market
The highest risk in Forex trading is the reliance on the availability of a big leverage to increase the worth of potential movements. This is because the fluctuations of currency values are very small. Generally, the Forex market is very stable and therefore, there is need for high leverage. This means that an investor will only have to pay a small fraction of the price of his trade, but still be responsible for the total cost of the trade. If the market does not go as thought, the losses can be big depending on how much was invested.
There is a feature in the market that allows losses to be reduced called a stop loss order though it will not protect against loss completely. The currency markets may have small fluctuations making the foreign exchange business stable. However, the small fluctuations that happen are volatile and currency value changes within a very short period of time. Because of the high leverage standards put in place, the smallest change will have a huge impact on the investments. This means that very close monitoring strategies have to be set in place. There is also a problem posed by the trade. Since it is global in countries of varied time zones, the market is active all the hours of the day and for six days a week. There is a lot of time needed to monitor any investments.

Post-game breakdown: South Florida
UConn did what it had to do during its two-game home-stand.
UConn cruised to its most lopsided win in American Athletic Conference play, scoring an 83-40 victory overSouth Floridaat the XL Center.
"We just didn't show up,"South Florida coach Stan Heath said.
No kidding.
UConn (19-5, 7-4) never trailed, leading 45-14 at halftime.
"It was a great game," UConn coach Kevin Ollie said. "We came out and established ourselves early. … And we just kept it rolling."
Some post-game news, notes and quotes:
-- This was a true team effort.
Twelve Huskies played and all 12 scored at least two points. Walk-ons Nnamdi Amilo and Pat Lenehan both scored their first points this season.
"It was really good to have guys come in and contribute in all types of ways," Lasan Kromah said.
Freshmen Kentan Facey (10) and Terrence Samuel (eight) each had a career high. Junior DeAndre Daniels led the way with 12 points.
Reserves combined for 42 points, two more thanSouth Florida's scoring total.
"I'm very proud of the bench," Ollie said. "And it just shows how deep a team we are."
-- UConn played terrific defense, allowing season lows for points and field goal percentage (24.0).South Floridamade just four of 23 field goals attempts in the first half.
"Defense is all five and that's what we've been doing," Daniels said. "We've been talking and rotating. That's what we've been focusing in on in our practices."
Freshman center Amida Brimah was a force inside, blocking six shots.
-- The Huskies came into the game wanting to protect the paint and force the Bulls to shoot from the outside.
Mission accomplished.
The Bulls scored just 16 points in the paint and shot the ball poorly from the perimeter, making just two of 12 from 3-point range.
"They did a lot of good things," Heath said. "You look at some of the keys areas of the game. The points off turnovers, the points in the paint really tell the story.
UConn scored 30 points in the paint and scored 26 points off 15 turnovers.
-- Reserves Omar Calhoun (concussion) and Tyler Olander (flu) were sidelined and didn't attend the game.
-- UConn improved to 13-0 when out-rebounding an opponent, winning the battle of the boards, 41-31.
Daniels, Kromah and Napier led the team in rebounding with five apiece.
-- During a pre-game ceremony, senior Shabazz Napier was recognized for becoming the only player in school history to score 1,600 points and hand out 550 assists.
Napier scored seven points and moved into 10th place on the school's all-time scoring list with 1,654, passing both Donyell Marshall (1,648) and Khalid El-Amin (1,650).
-- UConn hosts No. 20 Memphis at noon on Saturday in Hartford.
"They'll be a lot of different…," Ollie said. "They've got outstanding players. South Florida has got outstanding players. We just played a great game tonight. It was just an off-night for them."
Napier should be rested for Saturday's game after playing a season-low 18 minutes. He had a season-low tying seven points and didn't score in double figures for only the second time this season.
UConn enters today's game sitting in fifth place in the American Athletic Conference.Tulsa (7-0) and SMU (7-1) are pulling away from the pack.
UConn has had issues putting teams away this season. It happened again on Thursday.
UConn begins an important two-game homestand tonight with an American Athletic Conference game against Central Florida.
After its latest damaging loss, UConn faces a long, hard road to qualify for the NCAA tournament.
UConn didn't lose its seventh game last season until March 8.The Huskies (9-6) are trying to avoid suffering their seventh defeat tonight at Stanford.
UConn suffered a major letdown against Tulsa on Tuesday night. Almost nothing went right for the Huskies, who were simply out-played and out-worked for the first time in recent weeks.
Remember when UConn's big conference games used to be against Syracuse and Georgetown?
UConn is heating up at the right time.The Huskies scored an important 62-56 victory over Cincinnati today before a sold-out XL Center crowd of 15,564.
It's too early in the season to place today's game in the must win category.
UConn is one of four American Athletic Conference teams still without a conference win heading into tonight's game against South Florida at the Sun Dome.
UConn worked out at the University of Tampa's beautiful Bob Martinez Athletics Center on Monday.

One of my early Champions rules-lawyer characters. I wanted to see what it would be like to play a Speed 12 guy, sue me. This is the first serious attempt at a costume. He's an on-the-streets type of guy, and clearly loves his Chicago Cubs. I wanted his costume to be made up of actual clothing parts you could see a regular guy assembling, even stashed in a handy gym bag for when he needs a quick change. Thus the cap, the mask (which he forgets more often than not, preferring just to keep the cap pulled low and moving so fast people don't get a good look at him), modified leather sports jacket, Underarmour stretch shirt with the lightning logo on it, jeans, and sneakers.

A place to call home for Sonam
Comment on this storySONAM Kapoor is scouting for houses in Dubai.
Kapoor, who says she is excited about her upcoming film release Khoobsurat, is a frequent flyer to Dubai, where her father Anil Kapoor has an office.
The actress has considered a few residential properties, especially serviced flats and villas in Palm Jumeirah.
"The plans of having her own place materialised on a recent trip to Dubai for an event. She feels it's nicer than a hotel suite. She is likely to go to Dubai to decide on the property before she starts filming for Sooraj Barjatya's next film," revealed a friend of the actress.
Shahrukh Khan, Abhishek Bachchan, Shilapa Shetty and Sohail Khan also own pads in Dubai. – Oneindia.in

Fall 2011 New York Fashion Week: Libertine
Johnson Hartig Displays Cool Prints and Covetable Coats For Libertine's Fall 2011 Collection
>> Libertine last showed in 2009 via presentation, and it's been since 2006 that the label has done a runway show. But designer Johnson Hartig brought his clothes back to the catwalk today, with former Libertine design partner Cindy Greene (who left the label two years ago), Rodarte's Kate Mulleavy, Thom Browne, and Meredith Melling Burke and her daughter Eloise (who happily snapped pictures of the whole event with her mother's iPhone) all in attendance.
The collection was a welcome explosion of color — ranging anywhere from hot pink to yellow — and pieces like giant puff-sleeved tops, funky frocks, and bright three-quarter length coats all displayed Hartig's inclination for a vivid Fall. A screenprint effect was splashed over tops, silk dresses, tweed overcoats, cropped trousers, and even tights. The rare times when color wasn't present, Hartig turned to black and grey wool jackets adorned with gothic-inspired embellishments. To finish off the looks, eye-catching tights and an amazing colorful selection of colorblock platform booties — designed by Hartig himself.

"When I received these cards in the mail (early), I was happily surprised to see what good quality they were. Everyone I sent them to said how cute they were."
"This is a wonderful invite with lots of possibilities. The design team helped me add pictures and text on the front AND back of card making it a completely custom job once it was complete. I am so happy with the finished product and I know our party guests will be, as well! This one is going in our daughter's baby book for posterity for sure!"
"I loved this card for my son's 1st birthday invitation. It's so simple and cute. The lettering and different sized fonts were playful, yet didn't take away from whichever photo of your child you decided to pick. These are my favorite types of cardstock as well. The matte, rounded edges are so adorable."
"I paid the small fee for the actual review, and customized the colors with bright pink/yellow to go with the Fantastic First stickers and address labels. The review came back quickly and was exactly what I wanted - and I received my order quickly, too. Super satisfied with the quality (as always - I always have been with this company and have ordered several times through them), and the customer service was outstanding. ::happy customer::"
"I loved this on the website and how I could personalize it so much and I am even more in love with it now in person, I am so happy and excited to send these out for my sons big first birthday. Thank you for your quick service and awesome prices for great products"

Cars getting less dependable, engine and transmission glitches are main problems
Slip is first in 16 years, and engine and transmission glitches are the main problems
Problems faced by car owners in the first years of a vehicle's life have risen for the first time in 16 years, driven by problematic engines and transmissions, research company JD Power says.
In its 2014 US Vehicle Dependability Study released recently, JD Power found that on average, there were 133 problems per 100 vehicles (PP100) - a 6 per cent increase from 126 last year.
In the 25 years since JD Power has conducted the study, it was the first time it showed dependability slipping since 1998.
"Until this year, we have seen a continual improvement in vehicle dependability," said Mr David Sargent, vice-president of global automotive at JD Power, in a press statement.

Daniele "Erratic" and PCM thank you for your clarification with respect to your and my own use of "erratic". I guess in a way I was conditioned by trying to understand PCM related events outside of IEDM. That is the reason for the removal of the 1Gbit PCM-MCP from the products list on Micron's web site, followed more recently (Dec 2013) by the removal of the smaller bit density serial PCM 128Mbit products. Plus the relegation of PCM by Micron from available product status to "promising memory technology" status; with yet another new PCM process now under development. Micron also state on their website "PCM is one of several emerging memory technologies that Micron is investing in".
In relation to crystallization I would also like to clarify a point with respect to my diagram. I showed the case for threshold voltage as a function of volume fraction of crystallites. That is the case where percolation effects come into play and there is a discontinuity in Vt when the first nano-bridge of crystallites links the two electrodes. For the SET situation where there is a large crystal nucleating site already available on which further crystal growth occurs during SET then the Vt = f(VolFrac) curve would I think have a more gentle slope. I discussed the common case where one the electrode is the large nucleating site earlier article in EETimes on data retention and the impact of crystal electrodes.
Daniele- In that case I would think the statistical variation in crystal growth that you mention would depend more on the morphology of the surface of the crystal nucleus after the previous reset operation. I would certainly be interested in your observations on that point and how any element separation with write/erase lifetime would effect the conclusion you draw in your paper.
Thanks for the overview. You have probably been misled by the word *erratic* in Paper 21.7, which you have quoted as an evidence of possible reliability issues affecting PCM technology. I am one of the authors of this work, which clearly states that there are no reliability concerns raised by erratic retention. Erratic retention in this work means that the crystallization time of a PCM cell changes randomly from cycle to cycle, within a narrow time range around the average time to failure. Erratic retention has no impact on the overall retention characteristic of the PCM array: for every cell showing faster crystallization in one cycle, there is another one showing slower crystallization and there are no single bits standing out of the array distribution. Most important, all experiments in the work have been carried out at high temperature, much higher than the typical operation of NVM, to collect data in a reasonable timeframe. Erratic retention, that can be detected only in a time-temperature transition range between consistent retention and consistent data loss, appears at longer times and/or higher temperatures than the product retention specifications. For any further discussion on the erratic retention phenomenon, please refer to our paper in the IEDM proceedings. I will be glad to answer any question.

True Hero
Dear Editor:
"There they go again," trying to destroy a true hero. The most recent Republican ploy it appears, is that Senator Kerry did not get injured seriously enough or often enough or in enough places or something/anything enough, in order to have been awarded three Purple Hearts, the Bronze Star and the Silver Star. It seems, according to the Bush camp, all you have to do is apply for them like a credit card with points toward the Congressional Medal of Honor. They cheapen and dishonor both our military and our country.
Anyway, that's their latest game in order to show that Bush is just as much of a hero having been awarded his DWI while carousing the various drinking and etc. hot spots during the entire Vietnam war. All this while Senator Kerry was merely ducking and catching fire while patrolling the Mekong Delta, some of the fire being caught by his own body. Some may say, how can you compare a cruise down a lovely winding river to a ferocious brawl in some Tijuana Taberna. Admittedly, they're both dangerous.
Guys, give it up. That Senator Kerry after volunteering repeatedly to fight in Vietnam came to realize together with the majority of the American public that it was an unjust war is a credit to his intellect (excuse the term). Robert MacNamara, the major architect of that war, has painfully stated and put in writing that he also realized it was an unjust war that should not have taken place. He had come to the same conclusion as Senator Kerry, as did millions upon millions of our citizens.
Nevertheless the Bush gang is once again distorting history and stating that if any thinking person such as Senator Kerry or Robert MacNamara should state that truism, that person is some sort of traitor. Would that Bush had such insight before he dragged our country into yet another unjust war, IRAQ, not Afghanistan. Afghanistan is America's war and the one that we should all be fighting; Iraq is Bush's and his Daddy's war for which he has our boys and girls dying. The troops and money being diverted to that invented war deprives us from going full force after the enemy that attacked our country.
Nicholas Zizelis,
Dear Editor:
The residents of Briarwood applaud James Gennaro's attention to our neighborhood's concerns. As like every other neighborhood, we care about our appearance, cleanliness, crime and safety issues, etc.
Gennaro has demonstrated that he listens to our concerns and does care over what matters most to our community. All that he has done for us is deeply appreciated and deserves to be publicly thanked.
Aside from the appearance of the Queens Boulevard section of Briarwood, many of our residents do have a more serious pressing issue that troubles us. Many of our neighborhood's one/two family homes have been sold to developers who have torn them down and transformed them into multiple family dwellings.
In virtually every instance, building variances have been granted to these developers that exceed our community's zoning guidelines and ultimately diminish the quality of life in our community because of overcrowding. This is an ongoing development within our community that has been going on for decades and continues to make serious impact on our quality of life because of the overcrowding.
Aside from the issues like increased vehicular traffic and safety matters, there have been increases in nuisances like trash, graffiti, noise/sound pollution.
Our local elementary and junior high school is already bursting at the seams with more children than they can accommodate and something like 3-4 more apartment buildings are currently under construction and it looks as if more are coming. Gennaro has listened to our concerns. But this is a huge issue that may require more support than only a single councilman can accomplish.
What is occurring in Briarwood would never occur as rampantly within more "affluent" neighborhoods such as Jamaica Estates, Forest Hills or Bayside. Would such a scenario be necessary before anyone becomes concerned about overdevelopment in their communities? Or does Briarwood have to "go" first before anyone else notices a problem brewing?
Jeff L.,
Haunts Us
Dear Editor:
It is said that an ostrich, when faced with a frightening reality, will stick its head into the sand, an action which only puts it in greater danger. With regard to George Bush's disastrous war in Iraq, it appears Bush thinks that if we don't see pictures of the coffins of over 700 Americans, bringing the dead home, that the American people won't understand the terrible consequences of his debacle in Iraq, which has now killed more of our military personnel in the first year after Bush declared the Iraq war to be completed, than died in Vietnam in the first three years.
It should be noted, too, that Presidents Eisenhower, Kennedy, Johnson and Nixon did not start the Vietnam War, but were gradually sucked into it, while the current war was deliberately initiated by Bush himself, who gets all the blame.
A year ago, I wasn't sure if the "reasons" Bush started the Iraq war were just due to his clear lack of intelligence—"weapons of mass destruction" that didn't exist, "connections to Osama bin Laden" that weren't true and "liberating Iraq" when, predictably, the Iraqis now universally hate the United States, etc., but recently it has been shown that Bush's "reasons" were not delusions, but lies.
Specifically, we now know that Bush had plotted the invasion of Iraq before 9-11, that Bush arranged for 140 Saudis to sneak out of the United States the day after 9-11 (when the majority of those who hijacked the planes in the attack on America were Saudis and not one Iraqi) and that we now have over 20,000 mercenaries "helping" us in Iraq, some of whom have—incredibly—been used to "interrogate" prisoners.
As disturbing as the now-released pictures of the flag-draped American coffins have been, far worse for us to accept are the pictures of the torture of Iraqis by Americans in Saddam's own jails, images that are destroying what little support the U.S. had in the world for Bush's Iraq fiasco and breeding a whole new generation of future Moslem terrorists, who will certainly capitalize on this disgrace.
What Bush has accomplished is to make the world more dangerous for us. Remember, too, how Bush played "cowboy-pilot" last year and stupidly bragged to "bring 'em on," words that have come back to haunt us with the flag-draped boxes.
As more and more Americans now understand, Bush is no war hero, but a war criminal, who should be impeached for treason, then indicted for the deaths of over 700 Americans and some 5,000 Iraqis and injury to countless numbers of other victims of his Iraq invasion. Should he somehow escape justice here, he should be turned over to the International Court in the Hague for crimes against humanity. It seems inevitable now that Bush will be defeated in November because of his Iraq war. It is tragic, however, that so many more will be killed before this occurs.
Frank Skala,
Iran Danger
Dear Editor:
There is a great danger facing America that if left unchallenged will devastate this country and kill untold amounts of Americans. It is not Osama bin Laden's violent terrorist murderers. It is not the quagmire in Iraq. It is not the lunatic regime of North Korea. Although all these threats are serious threats to our national security and must be dealt with smartly and firmly, they are not the greatest danger to America.
Any threat that is greater than Osama bin Laden and his terrorist criminals should have the attention of our government and the people of America. This threat, Iran and its secret nuclear ambitions, do have the attention of the government and America, but they do not have the full attention. If this threat reaches its maximum potential it could leave millions of Americans dead.
Iran is labeled a terrorist state by the politically correct State Department. When the same State Department that refuses to label Saudi Arabia, a country that exports billions of dollars to fund terrorist Wahhabism, labels a country a terrorist state, the country must be pure evil and an imminent threat to America. When the government labels a country a state sponsor of terrorism, it is labeling this state a terrorist state. It is saying that Iran is a government or in this case, tyrannical Muslim clerics who praise the killing of Christians, Hindus and Jews.
Traces of bomb-making material have been found by Iran's bomb-making power plant, which it falsely claims is being used for peaceful purposes. Iran never does things for peaceful reasons. Iran saying it is using nuclear power plants for peaceful purposes is like the Pope saying he worships the devil. It isn't true and never will be.
Iran is an evil state, run by the devil and his evil followers who are committed to destroying America. To rid America and the world of this threat, the American or Israeli Air Force can take out Iran's bomb-making power plants within minutes, with no loss of life to the good guys.

Third Candidate
Dear Editor:
I'm responding to your April 29th news story on "Monserrate's Possible Ambitions."
As a concerned resident of the Queens, Elmhurst community, I don't care for either one of these candidates. In Crowley's case, I have been living in Queens for many years and I have never received a single piece of mail from my congressional representative. It's discouraging to know how long he has been in office without knowing who lives in his community.
Now, that an election is on the way, Crowley wants to pretend that he is well- known and liked in his district. It's too bad that he will reap what he has sowed. The Queens communities will decide whether he has been there for them.
I boldly said that Congressman Crowley has not supported many of the key legislations of our community. His lack of sponsorship or co-sponsorship for H.R. 235, H.R. 3190, H.R. 1755 and H.J. Res. 56 will cost him my vote and many others. He has neglected the faith community in his district. On the other hand, Monserrate is somewhat in touch with his community but deceives them with his promises by delivering nothing in return. He is really down to earth when it comes time for an election. However, afterwards, he hides and follows his own agendas instead of his constituents.
In his few years in public office, Monserrate has done an acceptable job at the expense of some special group he represents. His contradictory positions regarding some issues, makes him a dubious candidate. I have been extremely concerned about his support for the homosexual community. He has both supported and promoted the gay agenda since he has been elected to public office.
Meanwhile, he has publicly supported the state definition of a traditional marriage between a man and a woman.
In reality, he is playing politics with these two communities. I'm sure that his little games will not work this time around. Proponents, like myself, of the federal Marriage Amendment, will hold him responsible for every issue he takes against the welfare of the community.
Even though he understands the needs of his community, he is not ready to deliver any significant changes to his district. His description of Crowley's lip service perfectly applies to him. I pray that a third candidate will surface for this congressional seat.
D. Joaquin,
For Shame
Dear Editor:
As if to prove to those few who hadn't yet accepted just how backward he truly is, Bush has taken on the role of Robin Hood in reverse. He continues steadfastly to steal from the poor and needy and give to the rich and bloated. It seems someone has to pay for his outrageous deficit, so it may as well be the middle class. Be sure it will not be his corporate-CEO backers who fill his coffers. They get the tax breaks.
It doesn't take a mathematician to sum up the fact that their profits increase as their working people's wages decrease. Their wages are inversely proportionate. Never has the gap between the CEO and their workers been so obscenely divergent as it has become during this administration. No surprise and it will continue thus as long as this administration remains in power.
His latest gift to his corporate constituents was to relieve them of the burden of paying overtime to as many of their workers as possible. His initial scheme was so blatantly skewed toward them that even the Republican majority of both houses of Congress found it outrageous and voted against his rolling back overtime. Bush, considering the upcoming election and the fact that the majority of voters, when all is said and done, are not his wealthy clique, decided to throw them a bone. His latest spin is that he has had a change of heart and will now extend overtime protection to more people rather than gutting them. His well-financed spins have worked well before with many duped voters and it may again.
At least now with this diluted damage he can claim to have resurrected that, "Kinder and Gentler" Conservative Republican concession to the middle class. Police officers and firefighters along with emergency medical technicians and licensed practical nurses will now be allowed overtime pay as they had in the past. That will indeed be a welcome bone returned to them and appreciated when they next have to risk their lives and rush into another terrorist cataclysm. Will those voters realize that they will merely be getting back what Bush was trying to take away from them in the first place? Talk about successful spin.
At least this American flag-draped Bush can count on adding some bailout dollars to the disastrous deficit depths down to which he has dragged our country. He cut veterans benefits. He shames the American flag with which he wraps himself. That proud flag is much more appropriate draped over the coffins of the brave boys and girls to which he has sent them to fight his personal war. Those are the draped bodies who Bush has so desperately tried to hide.
Christopher Nicholas,

Smells Like A Corporate Buy Out
The Oh No, Please God, Don't Let This Result In A Covers Album news of the day is:
Courtney Love is looking to sell a 25% stake in Nirvana's back catalogue. And right now, the front-runner to buy it is… Bono.
So what does this mean for Nirvana fans, music fans, and everybody else who's terrified by thought of U2 covering "I Hate Myself And I Want To Die" on their next album? Probably nothing. Best case scenario, Bono and his Elevation Partners equity company (an equity company! Bono is so rock and roll!) get a little money every time "Come As You Are" is played on the radio. Worst case scenario? He loses the sunglasses, hires Dave Grohl, starts wearing sundresses and marries Courtney Love. Actually, now that I think about it, I think that's the best case scenario. Oh well, whatever, Nevermind.

I have been trying to find out the name of the Sand Plum and Possum grapes that grow in the woods and along streams in Oklahoma, but I cannot seem to find anything that tells me what they are actually called, scientifically or otherwise.
If I can't find some seeds I will have to go hiking next spring and bring some home. If you know what possum grapes are, I don't even remember if they are edible or not, seems to me we used to eat them when we went fishing and they were very tart but i couldn't say with certainty that that is what we were eating on, or that its not what's wrong with me today =) -Trent |
Follow-Up Postings:
Yes, Possum Grapes are very tart, and they make outstanding jelly. THAT is what jelly is supposed to taste like. It reminds me of my childhood. I inquired about them here a couple of years ago. The consensus was they weren't desirable. But if I had them, I'd sure pick them. Good luck finding seeds! |
Trent, When we first bought our land here in the fall of 1997, I bought two small books, both replete with photos, that helped me identify many of the native plants on our property. I wanted to know what they were before we began clearing this overgrown acreage so that we would not unnecessarily remove useful/desirable plants. The two books are by Doyle McCoy and are called "Roadside Wild Fruits of Oklahoma" and "Roadside Trees and Shrubs of Oklahoma". I don't know if they are still in print because their copyright date is 1980 for the first one and 1981 for the second one, but they were printed by the University of Oklahoma Press so there's a chance they still might be in print. Sand Plum is identified by McCoy as being Prunus angustifolia, and he gives its primary name as "Chickasaw Plum" and then adds that it is also known as Sand Plum, Red Plum and Western Plum. Here where I live in Love County, a lot of people call them Thicket Plum because of their tendency to form thickets over time. The small plums make a wonderful jelly or jam and although most of them produce red fruit, we sometimes see an occasional one with yellow fruit. Possum Grape is identified by McCoy as Vitis vulpina and other names used for them in some areas includes Riverside Grape, Arroyo Grape, Bull Grape, Winter Grape, Frost Grape, Sweet Scented Grape and Post Oak Grape. Here in southern OK, most people call it Possum Grape or Fox Grape, and theses native possum grapes ripen in mid- thru late-August. Lots of folks here use them for jelly or wine. The leaves of the plants have large, simple, irregularly toothed blades. The other wild grape I see regularly in southern OK is Summer Grape, Vitis cinerea but they tend to grow on streambanks where the vines climb high into the native trees. Their leaves look somewhat similar to those of the Possum Grape, but tend to have three lobes and are a bit more hairy and whitish. Other names for Summer Grape are Blue Grape, Ashe Grape and Downy Grape. These grapes are a bit larger than the ones found on Possum Grapes and they tend to mature in July. They also are used by some people for jelly or wine. Hope this info helps. Dawn |

I knew there was another grape that I've read about in Oklahoma, and finally had an "a-ha"! moment. It is Vitis riparia, or River Bank Grape. It also grows along fence rows, as well as along rivers, as its namesake implies, and flood plain forests. I see you are in zone 6b/7, so you may also find this grape during your "food forages". I found a website called "Oklahoma Wildcrafting" with information on Oklahoma wild edibles including many grape species found in various locations throughout the state that you may find helpful. The information includes maps indicating which counties the various native food plants are found in, or at the very least, have been reported in. Susan |

Susan, That is some amazing stuff! Thanks for sharing. Seedmama |

Seedmama, you're welcome! I dabble in native plants, growing several in my yard for the butterflies. Most butterflies use native plants/shrubs/trees for their larval host plants, and after awhile you begin to get somewhat familiar with the names. As I get older, though, I find more things begin to elude me, LOL! There are some really cool links to other sites on that website. I got caught up in reading about the National Dandelion Cook-off for one. Can you imagine 100 chefs getting together to present various dandelion dishes/recipes? Susan |

Yes, possum grapes are edible - as the others have said they make excellent jelly and even wine.......so do the wild muscadines that grow in SE Oklahoma. My mother always kept an eye open along the roads and creeks for sand plums, possum grapes, and muscadines. Sorry I don't know any of the correct names, but I can assure you that they are worth the trouble to have around - anything you can't use the birds will. |

Just ahead of the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas next week, Vizio's CTO Matt McRae told Bloomberg about the company's next big gamble: desktop and laptop PCs.
At CES, Vizio will launch two all-in-one desktop computers and three laptop computers, all of which are aimed at the "value market" like Vizio's TVs.
Engadget dug up some pictures of the computers, which are accompanied by a Magic Trackpad device and some kind of speaker/subwoofer.
The desktop will come in 24 and 27 inch models, and the laptops will come in a 15 inch model, as well as ultra-thin 14 and 15 inch models. Also, the computers will be able to beam content back and forth with Vizio Smart TVs.
Vizio's new computers will arrive by June 2012.
It's never too late to hop into the PC game.... right?

Doctor Who is entering the home stretch of Season 8, which is obviously a perfect time to slow down and talk about trees.
This week's Doctor Who is much like the villain that inhabits its story. On the outside, it almost seems a little flat, with not much form or substance. But when you look closer, there's another dimension to be had!
If you thought last week's Doctor Who didn't have enough going on, then this week's caper should fix that. Come for the recap, stay for our longest list of episode notes this season.
This week's Doctor Who is so controversial, you might have already heard about it. Still, just to be safe, you should click into our recap and see what we have to say.
Last week on Doctor Who, Steven Moffat gave us a perfect throwback to classic Moffat writing and scares. After the last two weeks of Doctor Who, the show seems to be on a roll in terms of creativity and adventure. Which makes this week's episode, Time Heist, a little bit of a let down. It's very stylish, but reminiscent of Doctor Who's past
Peter Capaldis run as Doctor Who twelfth Time Lord is hitting an early stride as his dark stoicism is giving way to some interesting character development. Heres hoping hes turned into a man of all smiles by the time Christmas the holidays roll around.
This week's Doctor Who ranks up there with the likes of other Steven Moffat masterpieces as "Blink." It might even have bold implications for the future of the show. Suffice it to say, if you missed this week's Doctor Who, you missed a lot.
A new week means a new adventure with The Doctor, and this week's is legendary. Literally... just ask Robin Hood himself!
Reddits 'Ask Me Anything' sessions often offer fun little peeks into the lives of celebrities and important figures, and Doctor Who writer and actor and Sherlock co-creator Mark Gatiss AMA was certainly no different (although his was decidedly proper, with favourite and other words spelled in the lovely British manner). If you like to geek out to either of Britains excellent dramas, weve culled together some of the best moments from Gatiss AMA.
As far as the history of controversial shows goes, Doctor Who isn't exactly a name you hear mentioned often in its pages. Yet this season has seen two of its first three episodes edited, albeit for two different reasons.
Last week on Doctor Who, we were reintroduced to the man we know as The Doctor. While his name and mode of transportation are the same, the man behind the moniker is definitely different. How different we don't know, and to a certain extent neither does he. This week, he'll find out a little bit more about himself in the last place you'd expect him to be
Doctor Who is back! If you need any other incentive to click the headline, you're probably not a fan. So come inside and find out why you should be!
Doctor Who usually tells the story of a guy trapped in a box with a series of beautiful women whom he has absolutely no interest in beyond basic friendship.In other words, its a perfect target for porn parody, and its happening as a porn parody web series.
When Doctor Who returns later this month, fans will begin the process of getting to know the twelfth Doctor, played by Peter Capaldi. From what's being reported, a new Doctor isn't the only major change headed to the beloved sci-fi series. If you're averse to major spoilers about Doctor Who, you want to stop reading now!

Why? I mean, what if i'm say... 15-17 and my sister is 1 year older or younger... what's wrong with letting them see it?
Printable View
Why? I mean, what if i'm say... 15-17 and my sister is 1 year older or younger... what's wrong with letting them see it?
That's a very short sighted view. Beyond a certain age, say 20 plus when your sister is already married, are you still going to shield her from these things?
OMG how about you guys go to ANY respectable adult give them a copy of FE and say what would you do if i gave this to your daughter.
Yeah.... um... we were talking about sisters here, i would show it to my friends (girls) if they had any intereset in manga at all. And if i had a sister close to my age, maybe i would too.
I guess you dont realize that your parents daughter is the same person as your sister.
It's not the same. Simply by being my sister.
It's not like i'd go to some guy and ask "what would you do if i gave this to your daughter", since i couldn't care less about an unknown.
If this helps you (man) have a better sexual experience by giving you knowledge, why is it wrong to let a woman know it too?
If my parents were against it i wouldn't give a sh*t, since they would too shallow minded about something like that. If you have a sister you have to know that she will have sex one day (well, it's not 100% sure tough), and will probably enjoy it quite a lot like anyone else.
Yes, your beloved sister will do it, and i doubt that only once. (I'm not specifically adressing this to you,but to anyone that denies that.)
Okay but its not a brothers place in the world to share that knowlage and if anything not in the form of a Hentai Manga.
And I doubt any body reading Futari Ecchi reads it for "sexual knowlage".
personally i think this manga taught people about sex education too.....;)
Strongly emphasizes on techniques though hehehe , still i think this might be useful for some people.:)
Well, it teaches more than school at least <.<
Yup...*sigh* school dosent teach crap. not here in the US any ways.-_-

Study: Could A Daily Aspirin Combat Cancer?
By GalTime .com
Aspirin, a widely used weapon against heart attacks, might also play a role in cancer prevention, according to three new British studies.
"We have now found that after taking aspirin for three or four years there starts to be a reduction in the number of people with the spread of cancers, so it seems as well as preventing the long-term development of cancers, there is good evidence now that it is preventing the spread of cancers," says lead researcher Dr. Peter M. Rothwell, a professor of neurology at the University of Oxford and John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford.
"Because aspirin prevents the spread of cancers, it could potentially be used as a treatment," he added.
Other studies have shown that a daily dose of aspirin taken over 10 years appeared to prevent some cancers, but the short-term benefits and the benefits for women weren't clear.
Related: Will Drinking Red Wine Cut Your Breast Cancer Risk?
More recently, a daily low-dose aspirin has been recommended for people who have had a heart attack or stroke to prevent another.
"It may well be that taking aspirin to prevent cancer becomes the main reason for taking it," Rothwell said.
The theory, according to Rothwell, is that aspirin may work against cancer by inhibiting platelets, which promote clotting and also help cancer cells spread.
In one study, Rothwell's team analyzed data from 51 previous clinical trials comparing aspirin with no aspirin in preventing heart attacks.
The results indicated that overall, daily low-dose aspirin also reduced the risk of dying from cancer by 15 percent. Further, taking aspirin five years or more reduced the risk by 37 percent, and over three years, the risk reduction was about 25 percent for both men and women, the researchers discovered.
In addition, aspirin was associated with a 12 percent reduction in deaths from non-cardiovascular causes, they reported.
In another study, Rothwell's team examined the effect of aspirin on slowing the spread of cancer, or metastasis.
Their data derived from five clinical trials that also looked at daily low-dose aspirin (75 milligrams or more) and heart attack and stroke prevention. The researchers honed in on patients who developed cancer.

After more than six years of follow-up, low-dose aspirin reduced the risk of distant metastasis by 36 percent, compared with cancer patients receiving a placebo, they found.
Additionally, aspirin reduced the risk of metastasis in solid tumors, such as colon, lung and prostate cancer, by 46 percent and by 18 percent for cancers of the bladder and kidney.
